Thanks a lot for the follow-up and information. ??
I’ll check it out as soon as I’ll have some time for it. ????

Cool, I’ll try that immediately.
Thank you kindly for your swift reply!

EDIT: Yep, it works perfectly. Thanks a lot!

You’re most welcome. How did you do it with the envelope?

I tried many times, but I only get the round button, no image inside. Can you maybe share the code you used?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Meanwhile I found an envelope, too. The css code should be like this:

.social-menu a[href*="mailto"]::before { content: '\f0e0'; font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Brands'; }

Strangely, when I add the custom link (mailto:YourEmail) to my menu, the round button appears, but the envelope doesn’t. I haven’t figured out yet, why, because when I change the Unicode (f0e0) to any other icon, it works. But not with the envelope.

I’m not 100% sure if I understood you, but I’d say for Linkedin, you just have to add the code like this to your custom styles in the theme editor.

.social-menu a[href*="https://www.linkedin.com/in/"]::before { content: '\f08c'; font-family: 'Font Awesome 5 Brands'; }

Have you tried that?
But you also have to add the link as a custom link to your menu in the editor.

When you have added the css part, navigate to menus.

Go to the social menu, and add a custom link with your Linkedin profile URL as link and Linkedin as Navigation label. Then save/publish.

Does that work?

I haven’t found the email letter icon yet, but it should work with the same steps, just updated the links and icon

You too ??

No worries ?? Since I always save a backup version of any file that I change, I could revert it in the blink of an eye. ????

Thanks for the forum link, I’ll check it out. ??

I tried replacing exactly like you wrote, and it crashed my whole site, unfortunately. ??

Instead of the homepage, I was shown a broke title of one post and nothing else.

But still, thanks for trying to help. ??

Sorry, if I hijack this topic, but I’m very interested in this, too. I have some password protected posts on my site, and it looks somewhat ugly if the preview images (featured images) aren’t shown on the homepage.
Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks a lot! I tried myself meanwhile and it’s working perfectly.

Cool! Thank you very much for your help and your super speedy reply.

— Edit —

Sorry, Just to make sure: The mastodon.social part of the link needs to be adjusted to the correct server, am I right?

Hi,

Now I’m the one to be sorry for the late reply.

I entered the code in a code snippet plugin, but since I haven’t posts that are this old yet, I will see in a few months whether it is working.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Kind regards
